Summer calls for seafood. A shrimp & clam boil may be the perfect way to celebrate the season. A boil featuring fresh shellfish is a super easy way to enjoy all your favs in one dish. 

Here’s how it’s done: 
Cut an onion into quarters. Halve a head of garlic horizontally. Add 1 1/2 inches of water to a stock pot, followed by onion, garlic, 2 bay leaves, and 1 tbsp Old Bay seasoning. Bring to a boil on the stove. Once boiling, add one bag of whole, small potatoes (such as Blushing Belle). Let cook a couple minutes. In the meantime, cut 2 andouille sausages (or more, if you like) into 1 1/2-inch pieces, then add to boiling pot. Cut 4 ears corn into smaller segments and add to pot. Continue to boil for another 5 minutes. Gather 2 lb shrimp (preferably shell-on), 1 dozen clams and 1 lb mussels. Toss seafood with a few drizzles of neutral oil and 1 tbsp Old Bay. Add to pot, cover, and cook 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat and let rest 1 minute before transferring to a platter for serving. Season with more Old Bay, if you like.
